Doctor failed to provide adequate care, inquiry told
Kevin Connolly told the fitness to practice inquiry that, in his opinion, consultant paediatrician Mohammad Ilyas Khan, failed to put in place an adequate treatment plan for the care of the baby, known as ‘BT’, who was born on June 15, 2012.
The allegations claim that Dr Khan, who was working at South Tipperary General Hospital in June 2012, did not put an adequate treatment plan in place following the baby’s birth and diagnosis of hypoxic ischaemic encephalopathy (hypoxia), or lack of oxygen to the brain.
